Ummm. I think we need to enforce the "answer your own question first" rule to kick this one off.

RSX is usually the one who catches me on that one... I'm pretty cautious, so I tend to think things through. As a result, I haven't done too many crazy things (at least that I'm willing to admit).

When I was in undergrad, I did a study abroad. On a whim, I decided to take off for a week to explore, and never told anyone. Wound up in some pretty interesting spots around Paris. Definitely not typical tourist experiences. I met some really interesting people-it was a lot of fun. No comment on anything else from that trip...

I'm pretty tame for the most part. The craziest/dumbest thing I have ever done was egging someone on to speed. The driver was #1 in his class, but was absent when they handed out common sense. 4 of us were going to a NY wedding (from MA), and he being the driver showed up an hour late. I wanting to make up for lost time said I bet this car can't do 100. 1 of my friends said 105, and shortly after I said 110 1 of his tires blew out. We found out later that his tires were retreads which used to be hazardous over 55

We need a lawyer to clarify if posts you make in N.R.R. can and will be held against you in a court of law...

Maybe if you phrase it as a hypothetical experience...

Okay, because a gentleman never kisses and tells, I'll go the other direction of "crazy"--

I KNOW a guy (not me, mind you)… that back when he was 16-18 (so he tells me, you understand) used to race his buddies in hour long at-night car chases. Through residential areas, downtown, etc. WITH THE LIGHTS TURNED OFF ON THE CARS.

The guy who told me this (not me, again) is now, many years removed and much,much wiser, fully cognizant of how incredibly stupid and dangerous that was. Not just for himself, but for the innocents around him… and is absolutely amazed that he and his friends made it through those years without serious injury or jail time...

Of course, this is just a story a guy I know told me. Who know if it is really true or not...

I really hope you're being sarcastic here and not honest.

It was in college. Had I known he had retreads no way we would have egged him on. It was the quietest 5 minutes or however long it took that car to stop in my life.

Between my High School and the farm I lived, was 6 miles. There was a rail yard down the street from the school. The track went past my house. We used to hop rides home on freight trains pulling out of the yard. Jumping off at much faster speeds was always fun. We used to crawl up under the slow moving trains and put coins on the track, and remove them when they were flattened to our desire. The craziest thing we did was dare each other to crawl under the trains as they pulled out. We would crawl under, wait for a set of wheels to pass, then crawl out the other side. Then do it again to come back. All have a high 5 and good laugh, then I'd jump a box car home. In my group of friends, we all survived with all our limbs. I cringe now, just thinking about it.

And what have you done? It's really so risque' to post anonymously on message boards. You rebel you!

Some would consider sky diving crazy. I thought it was a cool experience.

Once went white water kayaking and was not adequately trained. At one point I flipped over and smashed my face on a rock (thought I might have broken my nose). As I was floating down river, upside down, slightly dazed, it dawned on me I could legitimately die from drowning. That was a less than cool experience. Finally got the skirt off the boat and pulled myself out and to the surface.

Best part - as I stagger to the shore a guy who looks and sounds like Spicoli points at me and says, "Duuuude....You got a bloody face".
